Wigan rout St Helens 38-16 in derby, pile pressure on post-Rowley era

Wigan Warriors beat St Helens 38-16 at the Brick Community Stadium on 24 July 2026, avenging their Easter derby defeat. It was St Helens' first match under interim head coach Eamon O'Carroll, installed after Paul Rowley's midseason departure. Jackson Hastings' sin-bin for pulling back Bevan French, plus a disallowed Harry Robertson try, compounded Saints' troubles. Wigan move clear; Saints' season is drifting.
